Quotable

Sorry for all the quotes lately, but the monkeys are just cracking me up these days, like during this morning's drive to Grandma's house, behind a big delivery truck:

H: "I want to get a BIG stick, and hit the back of that truck so the door opens and I can get what's inside!"

S: "Hmmm.....what do you think is inside?"

H: "CUSTARD!"

[Grandma had lately been indulging his love of homemade flan.]

Zagat Jr.

H [pushing linguine around on plate]: "Well.... the truth is...I don't like the parsley."

The truth is??

Where do they pick these phrases up?
